Freycinet Walking Tour

Are you ready for a sensory journey? The Tamar Valley is unrivalled when it comes to superior produce. The fresh air, clean water, fertile soils and passionate, hardworking locals fuse together to create mouthwatering magic. We’ve curated an itinerary to showcase some of the Tamar Valley’s creative locals turning heads in the lively food and wine scene. Enjoy intimate tastings with winemakers before savouring all the Tamar’s fresh flavours over lunch.

Welcome to the rolling hills of the Piper’s Brook region. Here in ‘Sparkling Tasmania’, a glass of bubbles before noon isn’t just acceptable – it’s highly recommended! Join us on a private tour to visit two award winning vineyards in this picturesque region. While each is unique (one a small family run private cellar door and the other, one of Tasmania's most celebrated sparkling wine labels) , they both share passion for creating the highest quality Tasmanian sparkling using the traditional French method.

We’re giving you V.I.P access to venture beyond the tasting bench and discover the stories, processes and people behind premium local producers in the state’s North East. With close proximity to the ocean, learn how the salty air has a beautiful effect on the regions premium wine and whisky, as you delve into three intimate tastings with friendly passionate locals.

Tucked in a quiet corner of the Tamar Valley, you'll find a tasty triangle of local producers worthy of a toast (or three!). Innovative apple cider, international award winning gin and bold cool climate wines. This stellar refreshing combo makes for the perfect afternoon out.
